Rising Commercialization of Fish Farming
India’s fish farming sector is expanding steadily, driven by the growing demand for protein-rich food, the adoption of advanced aquaculture practices, and improved market access. Farmers are increasingly using systems like biofloc and recirculating aquaculture to enhance productivity and reduce ecological impact. Supportive government schemes are enabling infrastructure upgrades, training programs, and financial assistance, making fish farming more viable and scalable. Cold chain improvements, digital market integration, and private sector involvement are also helping formalize the value chain. As profitability rises, more rural and coastal communities are participating in fish farming, shifting it from a subsistence activity to a structured enterprise. The sector is gradually transforming into a key contributor to rural livelihoods and national food security. The India fish farming market size was valued at USD 10.5 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group estimates the market to reach USD 20.1 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 7.40% from 2025 to 2033.
Adoption of Advanced Aquaculture Systems
India is moving toward more efficient and sustainable aquaculture practices by embracing modern technologies like recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) and biofloc technology (BFT). These methods allow fish farming with minimal water usage, better disease control, and higher yields, making them suitable for both small and large-scale operations. Farmers are showing a growing interest in adopting such systems due to lower production costs, reduced environmental impact, and increased profitability. Government support, training programs, and technical guidance are further encouraging this shift. The use of closed-loop systems and microbial management in farming is enhancing productivity while promoting ecological sustainability. This shift signals a broader transition in Indian aquaculture toward innovation-driven, climate-resilient, and resource-efficient fish farming practices. According to industry reports, as of 2024, India is the second-biggest producer of farmed fish globally and is actively implementing recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) and biofloc technology (BFT).
